The cross-dressing master in the world of Detective Conan

"I'm planning to disguise myself because I don't trust those kids. If they're female students, they shouldn't arouse suspicion."

Sato neither confirmed nor denied this, but she didn't think the thugs were blind enough to miss a purple-haired man walking around in front of them.

Kaoru Kazama made excuses for herself, but they were all nonsense. Kaoru Kazama's current cosplay is Saeko Busujima, a cool and aloof older sister with superb swordsmanship. She has enough to be considered in terms of both figure and height.

However, it is clear that although Kaoru Kazama can change his appearance to achieve a higher level of cosplay, there is one thing he cannot change, and that is the fact that he is an A-cup.

As for his height, he is 170cm tall, which is 4cm shorter than the original Saeko Busujima.

It's fortunate that she's now a powerful woman; if she were a man, her height of 170cm would be quite stifling.

"System, come out and tell me, apart from height and bust size, what's wrong with me? How come I only have an 85% similarity?"

After seeing the similarity to herself, Kaoru Kazama was very dissatisfied. Her height was a major flaw, but this bust size was clearly given to her by the system. Couldn't it be changed?

"A straight man who can't even afford an A cup wants to challenge a mature woman's figure? You might as well just go to sleep."

I don't know if the system completed the update while it was asleep, or if it took advantage of Kazama Kaoru's ignorance to apply the patch, but it managed to completely humiliate Kazama Kaoru with just one sentence.

Kazama Kaoru couldn't help but wonder if this was still the same laid-back, golden finger he used to have. When did he become so sharp-tongued and recklessly sarcastic?

"Alright, I'm not going to banter with you anymore. Even though it's only 85%, it's enough. I feel like I'm almost one with the sword now. Just how powerful was this girl's original swordsmanship?"

In fact, he replaced Misaka Mikoto with Saeko Busujima's cosplay ability in order to be more in line with normal human perception. After all, not everyone can accept A Certain Scientific Railgun, but his super strong swordsmanship should not arouse suspicion.

However, such a sudden change must have taken a toll on the nerves of the Metropolitan Police Department staff. They were able to accept such a sudden change with equanimity, especially Inspector Megure, who didn't even flinch.

If Kaoru hadn't seen his wife Midori Megure with his own eyes, he would definitely have suspected that he was gay. He wouldn't be tempted by such a beautiful woman as Saeko Busujima. In fact, the Conan world is full of beautiful women, and he has never seen Inspector Megure treat any woman in a special way.

Ultimately, it's all thanks to Megure Midorima's excellent upbringing. Although Kazama Kaorima always felt that the name had some unusual meaning, there was no denying that Megure's family education was truly strict. At least during the year that Kazama Kaorima was a police officer, Inspector Megure's conduct was quite good, practically a model of a good husband in the 21st century.

Holding the wooden sword in his hand, Kaoru Kazama began to slowly raise his spirit and energy. He practiced the Iai style, which is a swordsmanship that concentrates the spirit and energy to the highest point and then delivers a fatal blow to the opponent.

This kind of cosplay ability is like reliving a person's life and then acquiring their abilities from it. It's not about simply applying those abilities to Kazama Kaoru. That's why he gained such strong calculation abilities when cosplaying Misaka Mikoto.

Because Misaka Mikoto wasn't a Level 5 esper at first, she gradually became one of only seven Level 5 espers in Academy City through her own efforts.

Similarly, after cosplaying Saeko Busujima, he is also experiencing Saeko Busujima's life story.

Saeko Busujima is a very typical Japanese woman, at least in terms of personality. Although she has a cold and beautiful face, she is gentle and humble. Apart from her kendo skills, she can be described as a typical Japanese housewife, or an ice queen version of Ran Mouri.

"It seems like I've really struck gold this time. I guess I inherited her flower arranging and cooking skills from Saeko Busujima."

Although it looks long, it's actually only three minutes long. After getting familiar with Saeko Busujima's abilities, Kaoru Kazama decided to start his own operation.

He had already reported to Inspector Megure beforehand. Coincidentally, his personnel file did indeed list his extraordinary swordsmanship abilities, but he had never shown them.

Chapter 111 Women are fickle

"The prisoner's goal is that tape. Do you still have the contents of the tape?"

This was the last thing Kaoru Kazama heard from Inspector Megure before he left. He must have overheard it from Conan. The culprit's goal was the tape that Minami Takayama had put in her bag.

This sounds strange. This prisoner isn't a singer or a music fan, so why would he be interested in a cassette tape?

Unfortunately, their manager told them that this tape contained songs that were still in the process of being written, and that this was the only tape they had for practice.

It seems that the perpetrator's purpose was hidden in the cassette tape. Since the song has not been officially released yet, this is the only available audio source at present.

"Inspector Megure, if the criminal's goal is that cassette tape, then I think the Two Mix group is in danger."

"What do you mean?"

When Inspector Megure received Kazama Kaoru's call, he was initially confused, wondering why she didn't come to him directly. He later realized that Kazama Kaoru had already disguised herself and gone to protect the children.

"Think about it, if the criminals' goal was to destroy that tape, it's probably because there's some kind of secret in the song that they don't want the public to know. In other words, if they don't want others to know their secret, destroying the tape isn't the safest way."

"They'll kill him!"

Inspector Megure practically roared the words, his emotions running high. Although he hadn't yet deduced what secrets the song concealed about the criminals, it was obvious to anyone with a brain that it was related to the case from a year ago. It was quite possible that the mentally ill patient who supposedly died from an accidental gun discharge was killed by this person.

In reality, the Metropolitan Police Department is now divided into two groups: one group is following the children to protect them, while the other group is investigating a case from a year ago.

Don't think this is insignificant. In fact, if we could know their kidnapping motives, we could take the initiative in negotiations. The police are currently at a disadvantage because they are too passive. Otherwise, they wouldn't have bothered sending several children to negotiate.

"You guys should keep quiet and pretend you don't know me."

Unlike the other plainclothes police officers who were discreetly surrounding the children, Kaoru Kazama sat directly next to them.

He hadn't expected that these kids, or rather Conan, would have such a keen sense of perception, and that they would recognize him so quickly.

It's important to understand that Kaoru Kazama's appearance has changed more than just her looks; her demeanor has also changed considerably, now possessing a gentle and refined air, much like a lady from a noble family. After all, Saeko Busujima was a daughter of a noble family, with impeccable manners and upbringing. Kaoru Kazama has inherited some of that气质 (qi zhi - inherent quality/temperament).

However, he was somewhat annoyed because this kind of refined, ladylike demeanor actually caused him a lot of damage to his manly heart. He even started to have some thoughts about being a good wife and mother in the future, which was a terrible thing.

Kaoru Kazama was so frightened that he dared not think any further. If he hadn't been afraid of alerting the enemy, he probably would have stripped off his clothes right away.

I hadn't noticed before, but both characters I cosplayed were rather tomboyish. One was the cold-looking but soft-hearted Misaka Mikoto, and the other was the arrogant and tough but girlish Misaka Mikoto. It was all due to a subtle influence.

Saeko Busujima, on the other hand, was raised with the idea of ​​being a good housewife. This central theme has had a significant impact on Kaoru Kazama, and it's anyone's guess how far this cross-dressing man who came to be gay will be turned.

"Sister Xiaoxun, why did you suddenly become like this?"

Conan always thinks he's so mature and refuses to hang out with kids, but he's actually quite childish himself. That's why he's the one most curious about Kazama Kaoru's changes.

"Women are fickle; you wouldn't understand, you little brat."

In reality, Kaoru Kazama only changed her hairstyle and outfit; her appearance remained unchanged. The reason Conan felt this so strongly was mainly because her aura had changed.

This is a good thing for Kazama Kaoru, at least his system doesn't have to worry about this lazy bum not being able to get married. Now everyone who sees Kazama Kaoru will definitely give her the evaluation of a lady.

"Inspector, we have just received a notification that the criminal's car has been found parked next to the river embankment in Tixiangjin."

"Damn it, have the prisoners changed vehicles? Now all our hopes are pinned on them."

For the next few hours, Conan and his friends kept moving through various crowded places. Every ten minutes or so, the culprit would call and tell them to go to the next address. It was impossible to pinpoint the culprit's destination. This was a very cunning criminal.

"What? The prisoner wants Ayumi to take the strap over?"

The police also overheard Conan's conversation with the culprit. It seemed that the culprit was very cautious, even asking Ayumi, the only girl among the four children, to take the tape.

"I think they'll let these kids find a way to shake off us police. They're probably just waiting for an opportunity here. Otherwise, they wouldn't be circling around here so many times. It's pointless."

Kaoru Kazama stroked his chin and deduced that he was currently communicating with Inspector Megure and the others via radio, while he himself had already left the vicinity, pretending to be a passenger who got off the train halfway through the journey.

In just a short while, Conan and his friends had thrown the bag off the train and then used a substitution trick. While the police were all chasing after the children, Conan, disguised as Ayumi, quietly left the scene.

To make matters worse, the bugging device that Conan was carrying was also switched with Ayumi's, which means the police have no way of tracking Conan's whereabouts.

"Don't worry, I have a way to locate Conan. I'll sneak over there quietly. Inspector Megure, you must keep a close eye on those kids."

"What? Kazama, don't act rashly. The criminals are armed and they have hostages. What good can you do alone in this situation..."

"Don't worry, I'll take good care of myself."

After saying this, Kaoru Kazama cut off his radio. He needed to concentrate fully from now on, otherwise finding Conan's scent in this complex urban environment with his five senses would be like finding a needle in a haystack.

"Damn it, this rainy weather makes it harder to spread perception."

Kazama Kaoru glanced at the gloomy, rainy sky with a sense of exasperation, but he could only force himself to calm down. He couldn't change the weather, so he might as well focus on finding Conan's location.

He put aside his anxiety, took several deep breaths, and slowly relaxed himself so that he could bring out the full potential of his five senses.

The reason he was so confident was because Conan was, after all, a child. In just a few minutes, it was impossible for him to run a hundred thousand miles away. Theoretically, he couldn't escape his perception.

"Yes, found it."

It seems that God was on the side of justice after all. Although the weather wasn't good, he still had good luck. After a little adjustment, Kaoru Kazama had already located Conan's position, which should not be far from here.

The title of Chapter 112 was eaten by the author.

"Big brother, do you think that brat will really come?"

The two kidnappers were currently discussing in a small room how they had called the children to shake off the police and then sent Ayumi, the little girl, to meet them alone with the cassette tape.

"Hmph, no doubt about it, they will definitely come. As long as we have these two people in our hands, the police will have no choice but to agree to our demands."

The man in sunglasses spoke confidently, as if he had the police completely under his thumb.

In fact, ever since he learned that his secret had been written into the lyrics, he had been planning this incident. Just as Kazama Kaoru had guessed, he had no intention of letting these two people go. He even asked Ayumi, a little girl, to come here to deliver the tape because he wanted to silence her.

You can tell from the gasoline barrels inside that they had no good intentions from the start.

"Sharingan, activated."

The police officer possessed most of Saeko Busujima's swordsmanship skills, but just to be on the safe side, he still activated his Sharingan. After all, even a lion will fight a rabbit with all its might, and it would be terrible if he accidentally capsized in the ditch. Saeko Busujima's abilities did not include immortality.

"This should be the place, right?"

While sensing Conan's location, Kaoru Kazama casually strolled down the street with his hands in his pockets, even wearing earphones that played police radio broadcasts.

"Hey, isn't that Ayumi? No, it must be Conan in disguise."

When they arrived at the location where Conan was, they saw a little girl in a pink dress. For a moment, they were a little confused. It was because Conan's small size was not much different from Ayumi's. If it were Genta, who was fat and strong, only a fool would mistake him for a little girl.

"I think I'd better not alert him yet. It seems Conan already has his own plan."

When Kaoru Kazama saw Conan in the phone booth with his voice changer, he realized that Conan was probably talking to a criminal, and might even be acting cute or charming, which was something he was best at.

As Kazama Kaoru expected, inside the phone booth, Conan used a voice changer to imitate Ayumi's voice and negotiated with the criminals. He even perfectly imitated the little girl's trembling, timid tone. No wonder he's Kudo Yukiko's son; acting talent is indeed innate.

However, Conan had no idea that Kaoru Kazama was still complaining about him not far away, while he was focused on fooling the kidnappers.

"Good, little sister, you've finally made it. I don't think the police were following you, were they?"

The kidnappers remained cautious, asking Conan if any police were following them.

"We didn't see anyone."

"Okay, well done. Will you listen to your uncle and come here?"

"Ayumi will definitely do her best!"

It's really a wonder that Conan could say that in such a greasy tone; even Ayumi wouldn't do that!

------------

"You'll be useless soon, so if you want to chant Buddhist scriptures, hurry up and do it now!"

The man wearing sunglasses slowly turned around; it turned out he had been observing Conan inside the phone booth.

"Uncle, I've brought it over."

There was a knock on the door, followed by Ayumi's voice.
